With approx 200 murders to their name the Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigade appears to be one of the more active offshoots of al-Qaeda. The group has claimed responsibility for numerous high-profile incidents such as the August 5th bombing of the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta, Indonesia and the blackout on August 14th of 2003 that struck the north-eastern US (which the brigades claimed was "Operation Quick Lightning in the Land of the Tyrant of this Generation."). These claims and others made by Abu Hafs al-Masri Brigade have proven to be false.

However, they have claimed responsibility for other actions that have not yet been disproven, such as the November 15th, 2003 suicide car bombings of two synagogues in Istanbul, Turkey. They received worldwide attention when they claimed responsibility for the deadly March 11th train bombings in Madrid, Spain. They also claimed responsibility for the train and bus bombings in London in July 2005.

Armed police in Stockwell have shot dead a man they suspect of the failed London bombs.
It's unknown if he's part of the Abu Hafs al Masri Brigade that claimed responibility for the London bombings 2 weeks ago.
